Bust-A-Move 4 1999 Puzzle
While there are literally hundreds of games in the puzzle genre that began in earnest in the late 1980s with the launch of Tetris, very few have made any improvements on the foundation that classic established. One notable exception is the Bust-A-Move franchise of games. Bust-A-Move 4 continues the tradition of fun puzzle games with steadily advancing bubbles instead of falling blocks and cute little dinosaurs calling the shots. It's essentially the same old formula, but there are a few new twists that make this game worth buying and playing. The action is good, especially with the many game modes available to...
Jetstrike 1994 Amiga
Jetstrike is an arcade shoot-em-up which enables you to fly 39 different types of aircraft on over 100 individual missions against the dastardly SPUDD. You get to fly everything from attack helicopters to Stealth Fighters, and Spitfires to stunt planes, with just tow slight catches. Firstly, they have been lent to you by sympathetic governments on the understanding you will look after them. Secondly, most of them have a complete lack of ejector seats or parachutes. Gulp! Things do not get any easier when you see what you are expected to do. The action is viewed from a third-person perspective - no...
Bust-A-Move 4 1999 Puzzle
Bust-A-Move 4 is the latest and arguably greatest in Taito's line of arcade puzzlers that are much more popular on console systems than PC. Adrenaline Vault's comprehensive review says it all: "Anyone who's tried their hand at any of the series' previous installments will feel right at home with Bust-A-Move 4, as the basic premise remains the same. Regardless of the chosen mode of play, you are presented with a rectangular screen, on which there is any number of colored bubbles. As an animated character selected from a cast of ten, it is up to you to use your trusty...

Darkstone 1999 Role playing
As a computer RPG junkie, I tend to haunt my local stores often (gives my wife far too much time to shop around the mall) and have even been known to wait for them to unpack shipments received on any particular day. Normally the daily fare is predictable but once in awhile something memorable sneaks in the back door, courtesy of the UPS driver. Darkstone is one such case in point and has kept me occupied for a much longer time than the software store owner might like. Imminently playable in the grand tradition of the best role-playing games, Darkstone deserves...
Legion Arena 2005 Strategy
Following the retail release of Slitherine Software's Spartan (and its stand-alone expansion, Gates of Troy), the developer announced Legion Arena, an online game that can be downloaded and played for free. In the same theme as the recent retail games, Legion Arena has players taking control of a Roman legion and pits them against various computer-controlled opponents. Players begin with just one legionnaire general character, who can draft more units as his fame and experience grows from success in battle. The names and appearances of all units in the legion can be customized by the player, and all units become...
Space Commanders 2 1985 Arcade action
The sequel to Space Commanders 1. Except for the brush up in the graphics and very few changes to some levels as well as new ones not much can be reported as few features in Space Commanders 2. The actual game play is still the same and the game like the first game in the series still a poor clone of the popular Space Invaders as nothing unique is offered. Your mission in the game is to shoot as many enemies as possible before they reach you. There are numerous levels although they don't look that different from each other except...
Umihara Kawase Shun 1997 Arcade action
Umihara Kawase and its sequel Umihara Kawase Shun are two very innovative platformers that were sadly never released outside Japan. Which is a shame, because they are both unique and highly innovative game that will make you wonder why later games do not emulate their realistic grappling hook physics (actually fishing line in the games). Alex Kwan said it all in his excellent review: "Umihara Kawase was a game on the SuperFamicom [SFC, i.e. Super Nintendo] a few years ago. Its sequel, Umihara Kawase Shun, came out on 28 Feb 97 on the Playstation. It is a "cult game", a game...

Sin 1998 Arcade action
Making a well-balanced and memorable first person shooter has become increasingly difficult these days. Graphics engines are a dime a dozen and the aliens invading earth plot is getting a little old. No longer can a company create a game where you are pitted against impossible alien forces that happened to come from another dimension. ID Software is the exception, but then again they always are. Companies are now having to add something new to their games besides eye-candy, and that something is storyline. Sin has a good story, solid gameplay and a speedy graphics engine suitable for all systems. Graphics: Sin...
